I sympathize and get it. As a Fed developer I feel your frustration, trust me. I love coding, though. Wouldn't want to do anything else. After all the meetings and strategizing, levels of management and Scrums, nothing matters w/out capable devs pushing code. I think the key is finding a group to work with that acknowledges and appreciates your value.
